WP2-1 Objectives
• Definition and monitoring of the project programme– Defines the project programme– Oversees project development and monitors progress– Oversees the scientific aspects
• Ensures external liaisons– Policy making level– Other communities (WP2-5)– Other VO projects (WP2-4)
• Define the Medium term Euro-VO strategic plan

WP2-1 Definition and monitoring of project programme
• Definition of the project programme, monitoring : Board, WPMT
• Scientific oversight– High level guidance: EuroVO-SAC
• Two meetings in 2008: 11-12 March (Cambridge UK), 11-12 December (Strasbourg)
– Day-to-day science input: IST
• Risk register, performance indicators are maintained

Transition from other projects
• Close organisation of transition from Phase B projects (EuroVO-DCA, VO-TECH) to EuroVO-AIDA
• Invitation of Board members, back-to-back Final DCA Board – EuroVO-AIDA WPMT
• Technology Forums organised with VO-TECH• Products of Phase B projects are assets of
EuroVO-AIDAe.g. EuroVO-DCA Census of data centres is used and will be maintained during Cycle 2

WP2-1 External liaison and medium term strategy
Liaison with the policy making level: The major event is the recognition of the VO as one of the components of the research infrastructure for astronomy – a major success for a young (~2000) concept– AstroNet ERA-NET: European strategy for Astronomy
• Science Vision 2007• Infrastructure Roadmap 2008
– Also presented in C. Cesarsky plenary talk on Global astronomy projects among 5 examples at the ECRI 2008 conference

Medium term strategy
• Major project deliverables– D2.6 (May 2009): Report on the astronomical
knowledge infrastructure disciplinary model– D2.10 (July 2010): Medium term strategic plan for
Euro-VO
• They will be build on EuroVO-DCA/VO-TECH reports and EuroVO-AIDA findings
• EuroVO-AIDA global view of Euro-VO activities is fundamental for building the transition to operations and the long term vision

WP2 – Strategy, co-operation and dissemination EuroVO-AIDA – First periodic review – 24 April 2009
WP2-2 Objectives and scheduling
• WP2-2 Objectives– Dissemination of knowledge, gathering of feedback,
sharing of best practice (astronomers, data providers)– Technology Forums as major JRA milestones
• Important deliverables, milestones and project products (Web pages including presentations are sustainably available on line)
• Several types of Workshops • Workshop schedule updated in the Preliminary
Project Plan for practical reasons, to maximize impact

The three kinds of Euro-VO Workshops
• Science Workshops (ESO) Multiwavelength astronomy, ESAC, 1-3 December 2008(Hands-on workshop, ESO, 30 March – 2 April 2009)
• Data Centre Workshop (ESA)1 in 2009 at ESAC (2007, 2008 = DCA, ESA, ESO)
• Technology Forums (UEDIN) – 2/year2008 = with VO-TECH as foreseen to ensure transition
17-20 March, Strasbourg29 September – 2 October, Cambridge
VO-TECH > AIDA transition
(16-18 March 2009, Strasbourg)

Workshop preparation and results
• Science and Data Centre Workshops– Preparatory work for Science and Data Centre
Workshops is done in Service Activities– Requirements and feedback from usage and
implementation gathered by VO participants, feedback from participants at the end of the workshop
– Input for tutorials, tools, standards (SA and JRA deliverables)
• Technology Forums are the place for presentation/discussion of JRA results and collaborations (including informal ‘hack-a-thon’ sessions) and preparation of IVOA meetings
